(G)I-DLE Soyeon Allegedly Disses Her Agency CUBE Entertainment
On January 19, midnight KST, CUBE Entertainment was supposed to release (G)I-DLE's audio snippet for their upcoming comeback.
However, just before its scheduled release time, a brief notice was uploaded to (G)I-DLE's official social media accounts. Their statement claimed that the scheduled audio snippet had to be delayed due to a work program error. They assured fans the audio snippet would be uploaded at 12:30 AM and asked fans who had been waiting for their generous understanding.
While many were peeved at the slight delay, Neverlands ((G)I-DLE's fanbase) was still willing to wait. However, once 12:30 AM. rolled around, people complained that the video was still not posted. At around 12:42 AM, another notice was uploaded, saying the video would be uploaded at noon instead.
Following the second announcement, Soyeon took to her Instagram story. Her post was short and simply read, "Ha..." The post mimics the sound of someone sighing. The post is speculated to be her reaction to how CUBE Entertainment was handling the situation.
Confusion further escalated when the audio snippet, which was initially scheduled to be released at 12 PM on January 19, was suddenly released at 1 AM. Subsequently, all notices regarding the delay were deleted from (G)I-DLE's social media accounts.
